CVE-2026-88388

Stack-Based Buffer Overflow in Espruino JavaScript Error Handling

Published Sep 24, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 7.5 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
Espruino 2v29 (commit bffc6d0) contains a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the JavaScript error stack-trace handling path on 64-bit builds. A remote attacker can supply JavaScript input that triggers an exception and reaches jslPrintTokenLineMarker(), which passes the address of a 4-byte int column variable to jsvGetLineAndCol() as a size_t pointer. jsvGetLineAndCol() performs an 8-byte write through the mismatched pointer, overwriting adjacent stack memory.
